Herein Lies the Major Key to Happiness
[幸福的钥匙]——天堂来信 #5900
God said:
If there were only One Key to Life, what might it be?
天父说:
如果生命只有一把钥匙,那会是什么?
Aha, fortunately, there is more than One Key to Life. Whatever is important to you as an individual belongs on your list. Little by little, you may choose to cross off some suggestions from your list and add a few others.
啊哈,幸运的是,生命不止有一把钥匙。任何对你来说重要的事物都在你的个人物品清单上。一点一点地,你会选择从列表中划掉一些,然后再添加一些新的。
It is understandable how money would feature on your list. Everyone knows that Life on the surface is easier when you have money in your pocket. At the same time, everyone knows – at least in theory – that money doesn't buy happiness or True Love.
金钱在你清单里的重要性是可以理解的。每个人都知道,当口袋里有足够的钱的时候,表面上看你的生活会更容易。同时,每个人也知道,至少从理论上说,金钱买不到幸福和真爱。
Good health – everyone wants it and deserves to have it. On the surface, no one would ever desire poor health. I say on the surface because, deep down, sometimes, consciously unaware, someone carrying an illness may need this illness for one hidden reason or another. He may hang on to it, and, still, he is innocent.
健康,是每个人都想要的,每个人都值得拥有。表面上看,没有人希望自己的健康欠佳。我说表面上,是因为在内心深处,有的时候人们意识不到他们携带的疾病是出于某个隐藏着的深层原因的需要。他可能会坚持下去,而且,他仍然不知道那个背后的原因。
It is also true that good health doesn't necessarily bring happiness. Plenty of people in excellent health are not appreciative of their excellent health while they have it.
事实上,健康也不一定会带来幸福。许多人在身体状况极好的时候没有珍惜健康。
Individual Love also has brought pain and sorrow, for attachment often masquerades as Love. Attachment disappoints all right.
个人的爱,也带来了痛苦和悲伤,因为依恋经常伪装成爱。依恋令人大失所望。
Creativity is great happiness, yet even the most accomplished creative human Beings who have great joy in creating may often be great sufferers as well.
Is there no One Key that lasts a lifetime for everyone?
创造是伟大的幸福,但即使是最有创造力的人类,在创造中享有巨大的喜悦,却也可能经常深受伤害。
有没有一把钥匙,可以贯穿每个人的一生?
We know that expectation and interpretation can be deal-breakers. You do your best, yet one bug-a-boo is expectation, and another is interpretation.
我们知道期望和解释是硬伤。你尽所能做到最好,却输在两点,一个是期望,另一个是你的解读。
You are wise to anticipate what you want and not be so quick to disapprove of what you get. At the same time, even all the Good Will in the world does not necesssarily bear the sweet fruit you seek.
你明智地预测出你想要的,不要那么快就否决你得到的。同时,即使世界上所有的美好愿望之合力也并非能结出你所期许的甜美果实。
How can it be that love and joy of life are so elusive? What kind of Boot Camp is Life anyway?
生活的爱与喜悦怎会如此难以捉摸呢?什么样的新兵训练营才是生活?
Yet happiness is always possible. Love is always possible. Health is always possible, and, I, God, am far more than a someday once-in-a-while possibility.
然而,幸福一直是可能的。爱永远是可能的。健康总是可能的,而我,你们的父,远远超越了偶然的可能性。
Wisdom and awareness of happiness are always available. If available, why, then, isn't everyone perfectly happy every moment?
幸福的智慧和意识总是触手可及。既然如此,那么为什么不能在每个当下都非常快乐呢?
Why aren't you, My dear friends, open to receiving happiness at every turn? Why would your happiness depend so much upon the outer twists and turns in life? Even Princes and Princesses are not happy all the time. The fact that Life on Earth is built in with opposites adds to the mix.
亲爱的朋友们,为什么不保持敞开接收幸福呢?为什么你的幸福会如此被生活的曲折所左右?即使是王子和公主都不能一直保持快乐。事实上,地球上的生活是二元对立的混合。
You would claim Eternal Happiness right now if only you knew how.
The Reality of Soul is happiness even as you seek it. Of course, you desire Peaks of Happiness.
现在只要你知道如何去做,你会去索求永恒的幸福。
即便你一直在外在寻找快乐,而灵魂的实相就是快乐。当然,你渴望的是幸福的巅峰。
When a young child and a great Old Master paint, both know happiness yet are not thinking of their happiness while they are in the state of happiness. You experience happiness. When you start to observe your happiness, it's not quite the same. What was once great happiness, now in retrospect, may hurt, for now peak happiness is no longer to be found
当一个年幼的孩子和一位伟大的老画家作画时,他们很快乐,然而并不会在快乐的状态中思考着幸福。你体验快乐。当你开始观察你的幸福时,这就大不同了。曾经的巨大的幸福,现在回想起来,可能是伤害,因为现在的你已然不在幸福的顶峰了。
Pockets of happiness come to you from the outside, yet these pockets arrive in spurts. Something within you knows that happiness in Life goes far deeper than what occurs on the surface of Life. Here's the thing – happiness is found within you.
外在的快乐零零散散,时有时无。你的内在知晓生命的快乐远比生活表面上的快乐更深刻。这就是事实,快乐存在于你之内。
The Major Key to Life is you. Within you is the Key. Within you is Everything. And, of course, I too am within you, and I offer Myself to you. Find Me. Find Me now. Inevitably, hand in hand, We are Joy to the World.
生命中最重要的钥匙是你自己。在你之内是关键。在你之内是一切。当然,我也在你之内,我将自己奉献给你。找到我。现在就找到我。毫无疑问,我们将手携手,我们是世界的欢乐。
